“Another Rant Against Corporate America” and it’s workers

When I can’t figure a title for my thoughts I just call it a rant. Because basically that is exactly what I am doing. This particular rant is about corporate structure and what the F… uh…. heck are they thinking. I get to work at six in the morning most everyday. There are pallets of goods that I have to break down onto separate carts. As I do this I have to wonder about the thought process of the people that create this work for me. I know there is not much thought for what the next guy has to do. Yet, deep in my mind I believe that there has to be some sort of semblance of care. I feel that there is a grave mismanagement of the company when if appears to one employee that the rest of the employees just plain don’t give a sh… I have to wonder if the poor way I believe things are being done is just due to bad management inside the company I work for. OR…Is it this way all across the country. Are the standards I feel lacking in the place I work for our problem, are they the same lousy standards that all American companies abide by. Is this why the country is in such a shambles. Have we let our ideals drop simply because we are letting past performances stand up for the here and now. Here comes another sports reference. Are we believing too much in our own press and not pushing the envelop as well as we should. I am tired of hearing how great our country is when in fact we have fallen behind the leaders in so many different categories Especially education (whole ‘nother rant for a whole ‘nother day). 

There just, seems to me, to be a total lack of pride in the way we do things. I hear people complain about not having a job. I hear those same people whine when they land a job and it works them too many hours. I know for a fact that those same people would cry if their company cut their hours. Please don’t get me started on all the pills they want us to take for all the little aches and pains that as a whole we used to work off after work. Now most of the post work regimen seems to be hitting the couch for a major dose of TV, and the only exercise my roommate gets is getting off the couch to walk to her room grab a cigarette and head out side to smoke. Then she whines about the colds she gets.  

What i am really getting at here is the total lack of pride I see most of the American people take. It sickens me to think at one time we were the greatest country on the planet. Oh, but that was when we gave a damn about the next guy…..

Let’s stop worrying so much about ourselves, (we do need to take care of ourselves somewhat, so we are able to help others) and more about our fellow creatures. 

One more thing let us not get all pissy about people singing “America the Beautiful”  in so many different languages, and let’s be proud that so many different cultures have picked this country to be their home!!
